Subject Gbak restore errors with Vista Business
Author coldhot
I have run into some errors while trying to restore a firebird
database. Firebird is running as a service. The backup worked great
with the loop back in the path, but the restore has been a pain.

With: gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "C:\ Path\DB.fbk" " C:\ Path\DB.fdb" -
user "SYSDBA" -password "masterkey"
It returns the error: unavailable database.

With: gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "127.0.0.1:C:\ Path\DB.fbk" " C:\
Path\DB.fdb" -user "SYSDBA" -password "masterkey"
Returns the error: gbak: ERROR: Cannot open backup file 127.0.0.1:C:\
Path\DB.fbk.

I have tried:
gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "127.0.0.1/3050:C:\ Path\DB.fbk" …,
gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "PC's IP:C:\ Path\DB.fbk"…,
gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "localhost:C:\ Path\DB.fbk"…,
gbak.exe -c -page 8192 "PC's name:C:\ Path\DB.fbk"…

All return the same error: ERROR: Cannot open backup file …
Has anyone else experienced this and found a work around?
